window regulator problem!!!
 

:tsk: after replacing the window regulator on my (front passenger side)...that common recall we all problably will have to do soon...or have already done....its one problem after another. -my power locks on that side is stopped working? ...any reason why...also..the window doesnt go up on the one touch button feature, but goes down....anyone experience this problem....or is it just a common error that can stupidly be fixed with my eyes closed? ....at least i got the window working properly :thumbup:

If all the malfunctions are associated with the same door and all took place after the regulator was replaced, it's too coincidental. Take it back the dealer.

What year is your X?

2001, i replaced it my self (DIY)...the dealer wanted $400 for a regulator i bought brand new off ebay for 100.

Double checked to make sure the wiring connectors are properly seated into the switch module, and that there are no pinched wires.

gee...that would suck, but i pulled out the panel to double check..3 times..i doubt that would be it

whoa...so your saying i broke a plastic piece while i was in the process of replacing the regulator?...how can i obtain a replacement....and does this solve the problem ro my door lock on the side not working...or is there a seperate fuse?

The fix is easy. Use plastic tie down to fix the broken plastic piece. I just fixed my 3 series tonight. Check out the e46fanatics.com forum under DIY and search for window regulator. Bmw has the same parts for the windows in the 3 as it does in the x5's.

any reason why the window wont go up or down at all, and the mirror wont tilt when i put the gear in reverse on the door i changed the regulator on (front-passenger) also the car doesnt recognize when the door is opened because the dome lights dont come on :tsk: ...ohh what to do; what to do...

Sounds like you have have a loose wire on that door, check all the wires. There is a black box that is close to the main speaker on the door panel. Check that box. The box seems to have all the wires coming in and out of it.
